When I was born, I was BLACK
When I grew up, I was BLACK
When I went in the sun, I stayed BLACK
When I got cold, I was BLACK
When I was scared, I was BLACK
When I was sick, I was BLACK
And when I die, I’ll still be BLACK
NOW, you ‘white’ folks . .. .
When you’re born, you’re PINK
When you grow up, you’re WHITE
When you go in the sun, you get RED
When you’re cold, you turn BLUE
When you’re scared, you’re YELLOW
When you get sick, you’re GREEN
When you bruise, you turn PURPLE
And when you die, you look GREY
So why y’all be callin’ us
C O L O R E D Folks?

A Hindu priest, a Jewish rabbi and a Christian evangelist wanted to rent a room in a hotel; but there was only enough room for two of them so the third would have to sleep in the barn. The Hindu priest offered to go, but very shortly came back saying “I can’t sleep there because there’s a cow and that’s against my religion.” Then the rabbi volunteered but soon was back saying that there was a pig out there and that’s simply not kosher. ….. Can anyone tell me what happens next, and who told this story?
HERE’S AN ‘LOL’ FOR YOU:
CAN YOU IMAGINE, AFTER JESUS CURSED THE FIG TREE (BECAUSE IT WASN’T FUNCTIONING AS A FIG TREE) IF HE HAD BEMOANED THE FACT THAT NOTHING HAPPENED. THE FIG TREE JUST STOOD THERE AS IF MOCKING HIM !! WHY WASN’T THE SITUATION HEALED INSTANTANEOUSLY? AFTER ALL HE WAS JESUS !! FAITH WAS THERE. EXPECTATION WAS THERE. WHY NOT INSTANTANEOUS HEALING? WELL, GUESS WHAT !! THAT WAS THERE TOO – RIGHT WHERE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE – IN THE SPIRIT !! WITHIN 24 HOURS THE HEALING FOUND ITS WAY INTO THE PHYSICAL REALM, AND THE DISCIPLES WERE FLABBERGASTED !!
My brain contains a few things I should know and the rest is just song lyrics.
I’m the perfect man if you don’t factor in looks, depth of character, emotional availability, intelligence or financial well being.
